I work with a lot of people through trauma and PTSD. Most of the people that I have seen have had some major traumas and if not then they have suffered from a develomental trauma. I am attending a training in November 2019 to learn further how to help -people in processing their traumas further and healing from them.

Trauma and PTSD are a result of life events were frightening experiences. Some of these experiences include, car accidents, childhood abuse, (emotional, neglect, sexual and physical) rape, domestic abuse/violence, death, and environmental events like fires, earthquakes, floods, and war. These incidents affect the brain’s ability to recall a coherent understanding of the events and the effects can be debilitating. In trauma-therapy, the aim is to help you rewrite the story and regain a feeling of safety and stability. I am a trauma-trained specialist and a PICT Practitioner – please click the link to find out more about Parks Inner Child Therapy

Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are unfortunately way more common than many people think. A strong link has been found my many studies between ACEs and physical and mental health problems in later life. Traumatic experiences can also take place in adolescence and adulthood. For some, the impact is greatly distressing and life-limiting, such as in the cases of having post-traumatic-stress disorder.
Many of the people I have come to work with have lived through often multiple adversities and traumatic experiences, throughout their lives. I offer a confidential space where we can think together about the way such experiences have affected you and the parts of you that can change and develop in order to integrate and move on from past traumas.

Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
I have an extensive background in trauma through my work with young people & adults around sexual abuse/assault, domestic violence & childhood trauma/neglect. My trauma informed practice gives me the basis for understanding & supporting people through trauma. My experience has helped me to understand that trauma is a very unique & individualized experience. For some people, trauma can appear small or unimportant (like a car accident) however to me, all trauma is experienced by the individual as traumatic for them, so whether it is perceived by others as small or unimportant it is important, & valid, for the person for whom the experience was traumatic. I have found that this understanding has been vital in my trauma work & has helped me to support people with all types of trauma. Building the therapeutic relationship, again, is important in this work to create a collaborative, safe & comfortable environment for my clients to share & heal.

Claudia Behnke
Registered Psychotherapist, Ma (Psych), PGDip Psychosynthesis Psychology, Psychotherapeutic Counsellor, UKCP accredited
I understand that Trauma can deeply impact one's sense of self and view of the world. My approach to trauma is informed by the work of Janina Fisher, an expert in treating complex trauma and dissociation, utilising her TIST model (trauma informed stabilisation treatment). I also work with the body using principles of Somatic Experiencing and mindfulness. By integrating these perspectives, I provide a holistic approach that addresses both the psychological and physiological manifestations of trauma. Our sessions offer a safe space to explore traumatic memories and their lingering effects, using body-based interventions and cognitive approaches to facilitate healing. The ultimate aim is to help you regain a sense of agency and wholeness, guiding you through the complexities of trauma recovery.
